I'm dedicating my book to Pink

Or at least, sending her a copy when it comes out (in 2008? 2009? gotta get a book dael first!)

from "No shades of grey with Pink" in The Sydney Morning Herald

Pink describes herself as a feminist - "I would say that, definitely" - but like many women, she is still trying to assess where she stands in regards to in-your-face sexuality.

"I'm actually reading a book right now called
Female Chauvinist Pigs [by Ariel Levy], which is really interesting to me because it shows both sides of it," says Pink. "In the book she talks about how we're thinking we are liberated but really we're just buying into the male mainstream idea of how we should be - the socialisation of it all. I'm just still trying to figure out what I believe and how I can put that into action.

"But one of the things I know, and I don't have to read a book about it, is that I don't think there's anything wrong with being sexy. I just don't think sexy has to go along with being stupid. I mean, I don't think you have to dumb yourself down to be cute.

"The sexiest women around the world are thinkers and doers and writers. People like Oprah and Angelina, people who are trying to talk about things. And Madonna, who's always trying to push boundaries, test people's convictions and ideas of what sex is and what a woman's role is."
